  4. I’d suggest Amarillo in Viru Keskus. It’s more of a restaurant but i’ve never seen it too crowded and they have nice booths, to me it seemed like a calm enough place.

  4. Not a coffee shop, but there is a separate corner there with good lighting and power sockets, which social media marketers took a liking to long ago.

    Не кофейня, но есть там отдельный уголок с хорошим освещением и розетками, который уже давно облюбовали SMM-щики.

  5. Butterfly - a very pleasant and cosy terrace, great guys and good food. I use this option myself from time to time.

    Butterfly - väga mõnus ja hubane terrass, super poisid ja head toidud. Ise kasutan aeg-ajalt seda varianti.
